NAME

6       ncls - List paths with rendering of multimedia
7

SYNOPSIS

9       ncls [-h|--help] [-V|--version]  [-d]  [-l] [-L] [-R] [-a|--align type]
10       [-b|--blitter blitter] [-s|--scale scale] [ paths ]
11

DESCRIPTION

13       ncls uses a multimedia-enabled Notcurses to list  paths,  similarly  to
14       the ls(1) command, rendering images and videos to a terminal.
15

OPTIONS

17       -d: list directories themselves, not their contents.
18
19       -l: use a long listing format.
20
21       -L: dereference symbolic links
22
23       -R: list subdirectories recursively.
24
25       -V|--version: Print version information, and exit with success.
26
27       -h|--help: Print help information, and exit with success.
28
29       -a|--align type: Align images on left, center, or right.
30
31       -b|--blitter  blitter: Blitter, one of ascii, half, quad, sex, braille,
32       or pixel.  The default is pixel.  If the chosen blitter is unavailable,
33       ncls will degrade (see notcurses_visual(3)).
34
35       -s|--scale scalemode: Scaling mode, one of none, hires, scale, scalehi,
36       or stretch.
37
38       paths: Run on the specified paths.  If none are supplied,  run  on  the
39       current directory.
40
41       If  no scaling is specified, hires will be used with the pixel blitter,
42       and scalehi will be used otherwise.
43

NOTES

45       Optimal display requires a terminal advertising the rgb terminfo(5) ca‐
46       pability,  or  that  the  environment  variable COLORTERM is defined to
47       24bit (and that the terminal honors this variable), along with a fixed-
48       width font with good coverage of the Unicode Block Drawing Characters.
